There are different ways of looking at trauma, or the harm you have experienced in your life (physically, mentally, and/or emotionally). Sometimes it can feel like a long and daunting road to overcome this trauma, or various microtraumas, to live a fulfilling life. But what if we could shift our mental framework around trauma to serve us better? Instead of “overcoming” it, we could instead “understand” and “integrate” it. What if we were to step away from the concept of needing to “repair” ourselves, because we are not broken to be fixed in the first place?
Our guest today is Haylin Belay, a pleasure-based sexual health educator and trauma-informed bodyworker who teaches people of all ages practical skills for a healthier, more pleasurable life. Haylin uses various methods of pedagogy to help her clients and students with trauma-informed care. She understands that there is NO one-size fits all approach to understanding one’s health especially when there is trauma involved. So her work is customized to help each individual achieve their personal goals, whatever that looks like for them.
In addition to over a decade of experience in facilitating research-based health education and professional development for clinicians, educators, and activists, Haylin has worked in K-12 schools, sex shops, yoga studios, and everywhere in between. She currently offers workshops, trainings, and one-on-one coaching from an integrated mind-body-spirit perspective.
